LIke others are pointing out here, there seems to be bigger issues in the software world of digital reading, while on the hardware front seems to be OK.
Converting pdf files to epubs is unreliable and often just produces garbage. Calibre may be open source but it seems to be controlled by just one person. pdf2html seemed to be making some nice progress but now seems to be not maintained any more.
In a perfect world we'd have completely open, maintained and well-known conversion software and reader software. There doesn't seem to be a Linux or Firefox in this category.
